Any corrections would be appreciated I play it with capo on first fret. Gil Bates Won't Be Long words and music by Arlo Guthrie
GNot so long ago I set out on this Emroad With my Cfriends and my comDpanions by my Gside GAnd I think of you wherever I do Emgo EmI'm a raCmbler, I ain'Dt hard to saGtisfy.
CHORUS:
CWon't be long till I am Dhome again with Gyou GJust a fCew more miles to gDo DWon't be Glong till I can Dget back on my Emown EmWon't be Clong till I can spDend my time with Gyou
G /Em /Em C /D G In the airport I'm standing in a line Search my pockets, check me out and I'm alright It's not hard but it ain't easy all the time To be in some other town most every night CHORUS Oh, I miss the singing from porch banjo nights And when friends come by to pass the time away And when the winds that chill the Bershires in the night Heading east through Massachusetts toward the bay. ?1974 Howard Beach Music Inc. (ASCAP)
